Hey if Lofty can do 1.17's in his NA 2 litre Toyota Starlet in IPRA form on crap controlled Yokies, why couldn't a car with alot more freedoms and HP/PS/KW go alot faster :D

The most important factor, TALENT. Unfortunately money can't buy it. :)

Here is some in car footage from my mates street registered 400hp s14 at Oran park GP

This car does 1.07's at wakefield (old surface). Flat 48's around Oran South and a touch under 1.20 around GP.

This car is running semi's (RE55s).

This car is a consistent front runner and class winner in the Multi Club Supersprint Series in NSW.

I would be very surprised if a street registered car on street tyres could do 1.18 around GP.

Was it you who bought my Brembo's and rotors?

Superlap will be full of surprises!!!!!

What times does this car do around Eeastern Creek???

That's very impressive, street registered rwd 2 litre punching out those times, must be a great steerer too!!!!

Troy (aka Roy) has some stiff competition!!!!

But Troy's racing "twoogle" :laugh:

got a spare pair of -5's hanging around?

JAGR33,

The car in the video is consistently quick. But there is a lot of road registered car's doing similar times.

This car will not be entering superlap. As it is pointless trying to push a 200sx on street tyres around a race track.

Unless it's a drift event which it clearly isn't. These car's need semi's to go quick.

He should still enter it, will be a great event who cares if there are faster cars out there???

Anyway, still impressive in what your mate has done.. :laugh:

That S14 looks very well behaved for 400hp! Steerer looks smooth and is on the ball doing those times.

JAG, if you guys did EC as often as you have Sandown/PI etc i suspect you would all be doing around 1:42 to 1:44s. I think that EC is a pretty technical track compared to some down here in Vic. I really need to run my car again on some NSW tracks, never ran on any of them with semis and the TD06 :laugh:

You would really needs 18s on a rwd car in teh Clubsprint class. The extra diam and lower profile would have to help a car on street tyres.

    • How dare you sell your unreliable Skyline and buy a reliable, Toyota/Yamaha car with a strong gearbox, torsen LSD and Toyota reliability. At least you won't need to worry about oil pumps, big catch can, oil restrictors, blowing off power steering belts, sheering off 3rd gear, failing ABS relays/pumps, etc.
    • Hope you aren't too sore after that one, might take a day or 2 to notice yet and I guess it is a loooooong drive home. On the bright side, tube frame front end is a thing at superlap, right?

    • The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/  
    • Yeah dunno why johhny posted that here with no context, just post on FB/insta bro where he put it up?  Laine had an off at T4 during Thurs prac, he's ok, car is less than perfect, they are done for the weekend, he can fill in the rest. Bando also binned it like 100m up the road.
